Post subject: | Breitling Navitimer World owners |
I have a question. The second timezome option on my new Navi-World seems to jump time after I reset it. It seems if I want to set it an hour forward, I will stay for a couple of hours. It's more noticeable if you set it from 12:00pm to 6:00pm. After 6:00pm, you can adjust it and it will stay ahead all night. After a day, it will go to +6 hours ahead of my normal setting. I hope I am reseting it correctly. I pull to position one, and go counter clockwise to adjust the second time zone (red arrow hand). Anyone else have any experience with yours? ~Brian |

Brian, I gave up on my second time zone months ago! I had mine set by my Breitling guy and it jumps all over the place as well. QC problems at Breitling on these watches I guess. Good luck. |

That's messed up. I've never owned a Navi World... I would contact my AD ASAP! If you bought it from one, that is. |

There is one about 65 miles from me, I may fly up sometime and spend the afternoon shopping in Fayetteville and have a $100 Cheeseburger. ~Brian |

A $100 Hamburger is aviation slang for a private general aviation flight for the sole purpose of dining at a non-local airport. Most often used by pilots who are looking for any excuse to fly, a $100 hamburger trip usually involves flying a short distance (less than two hours), eating at an airport restaurant, and flying home. "$100" originally referred to the approximate cost of renting or operating a light general aviation aircraft, such as a Cessna 172, for the time it took to fly round-trip to a nearby airport. Increasing fuel prices have since caused an increase in hourly operating costs for most airplanes, whether rented or owned. Perhaps I should climb on board a G-IV @ $6500 an hour to eat a $10 burger. ![]() ~Brian |

![]() I couldn't afford to taxi a G-IV to the end of the runway. ![]() My type rating nor my insurance wouldn't get me in the cockpit of one! ~Brian |

Not had any problems with my World at all, Brian. GMT hand or otherwise. Obviously I'm tempting fate wildly here(!), but I've had mine almost a year and I still love it to death. Hope you manage to get yours sorted. |

Hope you manage to get yours sorted. I'll keep adjusting it, I've wore it less than ten times and haven't played with it much. I have used the slide rule for some fuel burn analysis on a flight recently, which was cool. ~Brian |
